Hire gRPC Experts | Nearshore Software Development
gRPC is a modern, open-source, high-performance Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework that can run in any environment. It can efficiently connect services in and across data centers with pluggable support for load balancing, tracing, health checking, and authentication. You need an expert who can leverage gRPC to build a fast, efficient, and robust communication layer for your microservices. Our vetting process, powered by Axiom Cortex™, finds engineers who are masters of high-performance RPC. We test their ability to design a well-structured API with Protocol Buffers, to implement gRPC services and clients in various languages, and to handle the complexities of a distributed system.
The Problem
REST over HTTP/1.1 can be slow and inefficient for high-volume, low-latency communication between microservices, due to its text-based nature and the overhead of establishing new connections for each request.
The TeamStation AI Solution
We vet for engineers who are experts in building high-performance microservices with gRPC. They must demonstrate the ability to use gRPC's binary protocol over HTTP/2 to build a communication layer that is fast, efficient, and supports streaming.
The Problem
Without a strong, well-defined API contract, it's easy for services to get out of sync, leading to runtime errors and integration nightmares.
The TeamStation AI Solution
Our engineers are proficient in Protocol Buffers, gRPC's interface definition language. They are vetted on their ability to design a clear, strongly-typed API contract that serves as a single source of truth for your services, enabling you to generate type-safe client and server code in any language.
The Problem
Traditional request-response models are inefficient for real-time, conversational use cases. Polling or multiple separate requests create unnecessary network overhead and latency.
The TeamStation AI Solution
Our gRPC experts are masters of all four communication patterns. We vet their ability to implement bi-directional streaming to create a single, long-lived connection for full-duplex communication, enabling highly efficient, real-time data exchange between services.
The Problem
Building a polyglot microservices architecture is difficult when each service uses a different, language-specific RPC framework. This leads to a complex and brittle integration landscape.
The TeamStation AI Solution
We hire engineers who are experts in building language-agnostic systems. They are vetted on their ability to use gRPC and Protocol Buffers to create a single, unified API definition that can be used to generate native clients and servers in a dozen different languages, ensuring seamless interoperability.
How We Measure Seniority: From L1 to L4 Certified Expert
